How To Fix MD114 - Planning scenario & has not been released

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: MD - Material Requirements Planning (MRP)

• Message number: 114

• Message text: Planning scenario & has not been released

What causes this issue?

You can only create planning file entries for long-term planning if
the planning scenario is released.
If you want to create planning file entries for a material, then the
planning scenario, that is allocated to the plant in which the material
master record of the material exists, is released.

System Response

The planning scenario contains the control data for long-term planning.
Only once this control data has been released can you start long-term
planning. Then you can either create planning file entries at the same
time as the release, automatically, or, if necessary, you can create
planning file entries manually for the materials whose master records
exist in the allocated plants.

How to fix this error?

Release the planning scenario.
